Bird Run 2010 (Corvettes)
 

This is big2bird's annual Corvette run. I'mma gonna try and make at least the Saturday. See here for original post on Vettemod. Respond here if interested and maybe we can get some Motorgen Vetters to represent. West Siiiide.

Update on August 16, 2010. This event has been pushed back, likely to September.

I have a vett motor, can i come lol

As close as I can get is that I like Vetts, do you think they might like a little rice at their hamburger party?

This one is a Corvette thing organized by big2bird (Vettemod.com). But we'll be doing an MG run in early August too that's open to all.

Im in :thumbs_up: Probably be bringin the pops along with his C4 also.

Why do they call it the Bird Run.
Do they all secretly wish they owned Firebirds. :)

I may pull this off. Just got to deconflict with work and the gf.

My car handles like i vette, can i come if i put a huge sheet over it :huh:

Unfortunately no. This a Vettemod.com event really. Since big2bird is a user here and I have a long history with these guys, I just put it up here. We'll be doing our (Motorgen) cruise in mid August, second Saturday as always. :)

Awww come on, big white sheet, someone might even mistake it for a KKK mobile :uh: :smack:

Hey fellas, just a buy a vette and get it over with. You'll feel better after...promise.

You have no idea how much i want a C5 Vette, just they want to ream me something fierce on insurance

:drool:
I was filling out the paperwork on a Z06 just like this until i found out they wanted $600 a month for insurance

Only it had C6 Z06 rims on it

...im paying less than 100$ a month for full coverage on mine....how shitty is your driving record? :laugh:

I have nothing on my driving record. But i'm only 22 so i attribute that to the price

It won't go down until you turn 25.

i know :(

WHAT!? $600! I bought my '02 C5 when I was 22 and it was $150 a month and I had a clean record and I had another sports car to my name. This was State Farm full coverage. Wow man, shop around. I think you got confused, it might be $600 for 6months. They sell it to you like that but you can pay monthly. Right now im 26 and pay $90 a month for 3 cars.

No way its $600 a month unless you got 5 DUIs with a man slaughter charge.

Guy,

PM SexyLexy. She's SeanPlunk's wife and works for Mercury. She can give you a quick quote range. I did think $600/mnth was on the holy hell side, but I'm much older, married, etc. so I have no idea.

I dont have to im with Progressive and Erik (Nexxone) is my insurance guy. Granted this was sometime last year i checked. My current insurance is a great rate, i just have no current plans of getting a C5 yet. Stang comes first.

WOW. I am paying too much. My mustang has never been lower than $150 a month with a clean record and 2 vehicles on the policy. :surrender:

Look Wawanesa Ins, I only pay $1400 a year for 3 cars (in my sig) for full coverage on all of them.

I'm not retarded i understand how insurance works, It was nearly 4k for 6 months for 3 vehicles. Not worth it to own a vette.

I'm paying $166.10 a month for my old ass fox and my truck, fox comes out to about $46 a month, the rest is on the truck.
Coverage is 100/300/100
60/120
$100/$100

Bummer, but now Aaron can dyno his Z06 on Saturday :)

Sorry man. Just never heard of ins that high so I thought you couldve got mixed up. That sucks.

I'm in the same boat. Geico was asking for $500 a month for the V and my truck. Thats more then my V Payment so i told them to pound sand. I do have one at fault (only car involved) but still 3000 for 6 months is BULL. Right now im paying 160 and by the end of the year the at fault should drop off so it should drop then

It's cool, i apologize for snapping at you.

You young whipper snappers pay way to much. When your old and crusty like me you can insure 5 Corvettes with full coverage for $1,129.14 a year :smack:

UPDATE on the Birdrun Sept 18-19

Bird Run III is this Sat & Sun. Meet at Amtrak Anaheim/Stadium parking lot at 7AM. We will leave at 7:30, and meet the Inland Empire guys along the way.
This tour will be Arrowhead/Big Bear on Sat. Overnight in Baumont/Banning area Sat night, and Sunday up to Idylwild, down to Anza, and back home via Temecula or Palm Springs. Jeff designed the run so people can have a good time if they only wanted to attend one day or both.

It's a goddamned shame I can't make this one. As a Veteran of Birdrun I, I can say these are great long runs. Hopefully we can have a little more lead time on a solid date next time and we can promote more. :thumbs_up:

boo. Not enough notice to get the time off of work. On the plus side, get to finish the C5 brake swap on my dad's C4 this weekend :thumbs_up:
